Sanderling (Calidris alba)
📍 Godrevy

It's been about a year since I bought my 150-600mm lens for wildlife - without using it that much.

So when we took a family walk at Gwithian Beach last Saturday afternoon, I decided to dust it off to snap some photos of the family dogs.

My Dad spotted half a dozen or so Sanderlings scampering around at the waters' edge looking for food. So, me and my sister (Instagram @louisaswildlifeuk) spent a few moments snapping away.

This was my favourite. I was as close as I could get to them (with a little post cropping). I like the clean, uncluttered look, the colour palette of the blue sky reflecting in the water with the golden sand, the reflection of the bird, and it's purposeful pose.

Canon 6D MkII | 150-600mm lens at 600mm | ƒ-6.3 | 1-1250 sec | ISO 200 | Tripod | Taken 17-04-2021 at Gwithian
